Don’t ban all favorite foods

Restrictive food patterns that limit many of your favorite foods might make you feel deprived, which can lead to binge eating forbidden foods. Diets that emphasize complete, unprocessed foods are always the healthiest, but sometimes allowing yourself a treat is totally healthy.

For most people, swearing never to eat another scoop of ice cream, a slice of pizza or a piece of chocolate is impractical. However, in the case of food addiction, a person may need to permanently abstain from trigger foods forever. In this instance, finding healthy and satisfying substitutes is a smart idea. Concentrate on giving your body mostly healthy, nutritious foods while sometimes allowing yourself to enjoy a treat.
